This session of the IFAD Innovation Talks will feature a Fireside Chat between Advit Nath and Hélène Papper, who will deep dive into IFAD’s Basic Electronic and Secure Digital Signatures, and allow for discussion and exchange on how innovations can make corporate procedures more efficient and agile, while also ensuring the adequate level of security.
